Yea, the video itself was a spot on accurate analysis to me. Unfortunately, click bait is the only way to get views on YouTube.

I agree with you about Nicolas using clickbait. I am following him and his YT channel (thinking of becoming an Insider soon) since the begining but lately, IMHO, he is abusing this kind of headlines for a well reputed site like his. In the video on sodium chloride (salt) - Heart attack risk - he admitted “social media rewards engagement and supresses work where people leave early which disincentivizes creators”. Well, we all know its a tight rope to walk for youtubers.

We will not see much until very long-term studies are done.

Do we really know what to measure in the short term? Such things as CRP are all over the place. Only long-term studies that show absolute survival rates are meaningful. Short-term studies, and yes, 48 weeks is a short-term study unless the participants are followed for many years to come.

FWIW: You can buy enteric-coated capsules from Amazon and put your rapamycin pills in them before taking them with GFJ. This is what I do. I do not use olive oil, fatty meals, etc. because I, from the interpretation of my current reading, want a spike and do not want to increase the AUC.

I see that he hasn’t made a video about peptides yet, maybe you can ask him his opinion on the peptides TB-500, BP-157, GHK-cu, MOTS-c, SS-31 ?

Has he updated his opinions on any of the products reviewed some time ago, e.g. methylene blue.

If I guess he’s good about mitochondria:

Attia speaks a lot about Zone 2 exercise to improving mitochondrial function, does this happen systematically or is it just in the muscles exercised? Which areas of the body has an improvement in function or density of mitochondria because of Zone 2? Might organs have these improvements? Is there any way for the body to transport mitochondria elsewhere? Might Zone 2 improve density/function of mitochondria in i.e the brain directly from exercise or even transport?
